INTRODUCTION 


PECULIAR    FEATURES    OF    THE    WORK. 

A  "WANT  has  long  been  felt,  in  every  community,  for  a  cheap  Yocabulary 
of  Geographical  and  Personal  Names,  as  a  book  of  reference  for  pronuncia^ 
tion,  mainly,  but  secondarily  as  a  brief  guide  to  the  leading  items  of  informa- 
tion connected  with  those  names.  This  want  has  been  experienced,  perhaps 
often  unconsciously,  by  pupils  in  our  common  schools,  by  the  poorer  portion  of 
students  in  high  schools  and  colleges,  and  by  the  ma^s  of  newspaper  readers 
who  invest  very  little  money  in  books.  The  thorough  student,  and  the  general 
reader  who  has  plenty  of  means  with  which  to  supply  every  convenience,  can 
obtain  the  information  desired  in  such  works  as  "  LippincoU's  Gazetteer," 
*' AppUton's  Hiographical  Encyclopedia"  etc.;  but  they  are  too  expensive  for 
the  classes  mentioned,  and  in  many  cases  too  voluminous  to  be  convenient. 

Id  regard  to  personal  names,  so  far  as  the  publishers  are  aware,  there  has 
never  before  been  an  attempt  made  to  give  their  pronunciation  in  an  extended 
list.  [For  remarks  on  the  importance  of  calling  mea  by  their  right  names, 
gee  pages  128 — 9.] 

But  there  is  another  feature  of  the  work  hero  presented,  which,  in  the  minds 
of  the  publishers  and  of  the  many  school  teachers  and  friends  of  education  who 
have  examined  the  subject,  is  of  more  value  than  either  of  the  considerationa 
above  mentioned,  and  demands  more  than  a  passing  notice.  The  methods  of 
representing  pronunciation  in  the  ordinary  dictionaries  and  gazetteers,  either 
by  marked  letters  or  by  figures  in  connection  with  them,  is  so  imperfect  and 
unsatisfactory  as  to  be  a  constant  source  of  annoyance  to  «ll  who  are  necessi- 
tated to  use  them.  That  the  readier  may  understand  the  full  merits  of  the 
Bystem  of  notation  employed  in  this  book,  we  propose  to  notice  briefly  some  of 
the  circumstances  that  call  for  its  introduction. 

The  first  principle  of  alphabetic  writing  or  printing  was  the  representation 
of  each  sound  by  a  simple  character  or  letter,  so  that  these  letters  or  elemental 
parts,  when  combined,  would  bo  the  counterpart  of  the  spoken  word — a  picture 
of  the  word  itself.  Such  was  the  Sanscrit,  and  such,  it  is  evident  to  ever/ 
intelligent  mind,  should  be  the  principle  of  all  alphabetic  writing,  for  thua 
the  acquisition  of  written  or  printed  language  would  be  as  easy  cs  that  of

spoken,  and  there  would  be  no  necessity  for  Pronouncing  Dictionaries  and 
Gazetteers,  while  a  disregard  of  this  priuciple  renders  the  represented  language, 
if  not  hierogiyphical,  at  least  ideagraphic ;  that  is,  the  written  or  printed  word 
represents  an  idea,  and  can  not,  as  a  general  thing,  be  considered  as  repre- 
senting the  sounds  of  a  spoken  word.  For  example,  take  the  word  cmgh,  and 
what  relation  does  either  of  the  letters  bear  to  the  three  sounds  heard,  as  indi- 
cated by  the  Pronouncing  Dictionary,  Icnff  G  can  not  definitely  represent  i", 
because  in  cent  it  is  supposed  to  stand  fur  s,  iu  siiffice  for  z,  in  'cicioxis  for  sh, 
etc.;  and  how  can  o  be  a  representative  of  the  vowel  sound  in  cough,  when  it 
has  such  different  sounds  in  no,  son,  woman,  women,  etc.;  and  u  is  not  any  bet- 
ter a  representative  of  this  sound,  and  the  two  uncertainties  together  can  not 
make  the  matter  more  clear,  especially  when  we  see  them  called  so  differently 
in  catmt,  cousin,  povr,  tour;  while  ^  is  a  poor  representative  of  /,  and  h  is  no 
better,  and  the  two  together  are  no  improvement,  when  we  view  their  varying 
sounds  in  lough,  ghost,  and  want  of  sound  iu  dough  and  weigh.  Any  other 
word,  almost,  would  answer  just  as  well  to  show  the  utter  deficiency  of  English 
orthography  to  represent  the  spoken  words  of  the  language.  There  are  only 
60  words,  in  the  90,000  used  by  English  speakers,  whose  spellings  are  in  accord- 
ance with  the  true  principle  of  alphabetic  writing,* 

Primarily,  then,  an  insurmountable  difficulty  in  the  way  of  accurately  rep- 
resenting by  means  of  the  Roman  alphabet  any  words  whatever,  is,  in  its 
consisting  of  but  twenty-three  representative  letters,  while  the  spoken  language 
consists  of  upwards  oi  forty  distinct  sounds!  And  secondarily,  even  were  there 
a  uniformity  in  the  notation  used  by  the  different  authorities  in  supplying  the 
deficiency  caused  by  employing  the  Romanic  semi-alphabet,  it  is  still  open  to 
the  charge  of  complexity  and  inaccuracy,  and  therefore  unfit  to  bo  used  in 
teaching  children  a  correct  pronunciation. 

There  are  other  serious  objections  to  our  present  orthography  as  it  regards 
teaching  a  correct  pronunciation,  only  one  of  which  we  shall  mention  in  this 
connection,  and  which  has  a  bearing  on  the  remarks  above.  It  is  that  it  gives 
rise  to  a  slip-shod  manner  of  pronunciation  or  enunciation.  ^Yho  that  has 
paid  the  least  attention  to  the  pronunciation  of  the  middle  and  upper  classes, 
as  well  as  that  of  public  speakers,  has  not  noticed  the  great  want  of  care,  the 
inaccuracies  and  diversities  prevalent,  and  particularly  how  utterly  regardless 
of  all  rules  and  taste  they  are  iu  the  enunciation  of  unaccented  syllables?  The 
words  fall  from  their  lips  robbed  of  all  their  beauty  and  interest — shapeless  and 
repulsive  to  the  educated  ear.  The  fault  with  the  better  educated  class  of 
people  is  chargeable,  to  a  great  extent,  to  themselves,  but  with  those  less  for- 
tunate there  can  be  no  such  plea,  and  the  present  English  or  Johnsonian 
orthography,  absurd  as  it  is  in  structure,  becomes  responsible  here.  Good 
pronunciation  is  in  giving  the  whole  word,  with  all  its  parts  perfect;  every 
wiaccented  syllable  should  he  enunciated  clearly  and  distinctly — not  with 
emphasis  but  with  distinctness.  Speakers  who  are  thus  accurate  •  are  seldom 
found,  nevertheless  there  are  such,  and  it  is  probable  that  when  phonology

shall  have  boon  generally  taught  the  number  will  be  iacrcascdj  nay,  more, 
good  speech  will  come  to  ho  ''a  common  heritage." 

A  word  further  in  reference  to  elemental  spacch.  "It  is  rare,"  says  Mr.  A. 
J.  Ellis,  whose  authority  is  unquestioned  on  this  subject,  "  to  maet  with  a 
single  elemental  work  which  contains  even  a  tolerably  correct  account  of  this 
important  subject,  and  even  scholars  and  protessod  teachers  of  pronunciation 
and  elocution  are  generally  very  ignorant  of  the  latter.  Nay,  m»re,  the  very 
teachers  and  best  investigators  of  the  subject  are  at  variance.  Let  any  one 
peruse  the  works  of  the  greatest  authorities  we  possess,  those  of  Amman,  Jo- 
hannes Miiller,  Willis,  Wheatstone,  Lepsius,  Max.  Miiller,  Latham,  etc.,  and 
he  will  see  differences  on  fundamental  points  which  are  irreconcilable.  If  ho 
turn  to  works  of  minor  pretence,  as  Bell,  Smart,  Walker,  Worcester,  and  the 
numerous  works  on  elocution,  he  will  find  confusion  partly  arising  from  igno- 
rance, and  partly  from  a  partial  view  c£  the  subject.  While  in  common  gram- 
mars, and  in  the  common  treatises  of  travelers,  and  Pronouncing  Vocabularies 
and  Dictionaries,  he  will  find  that  one  person  has  copied  from  another  without 
understanding  him,  till  words  are  repeated  and  sense  entirely  lost."*  So  long 
as  we  have  for  guides  the  clumsy  system  of  notation  of  Webster,  the  "obscure" 
Towel  sounds  of  Worcester,  and  the  common  imperfect  works  on  phonology,  we 
may  expect  no  better  results.  The  remedy  clearly  is  the  general  introduction, 
into  all  our  primary  schools,  of  works  based  tqyon  a  strictly  pltonetic  princlplCf 
and  in  time  there  will  be  a  total  revolution  and  a  harmony  in  pronunciation. 

By  the  application,  then,  of  the  phonetic  principle,  that  every  distinct  ele- 
ment in  speech  shall  have  its  distinct  symbolic  exponent,  to  the  representation 
of  the  pronunciation  of  geographical  words,  wo  have  a  work  that  at  once  com- 
bines the  three  things  desirable,  siiriplicity,  accuracy,  and  reliability. 

It  may  be  urged  in  opposition,  that  the  introduction  (tf  this  without  being 
accompanied  or  preceded  by  primary  works  will  prove  incxpeiient,  and,  even- 
tually, a  failure.  We  reply  that  if  this  were  the  first  work  of  the  kind  offered 
to  the  public  there  might  bo  some  ground  for  apprehension,  hvt.i  phonotypy  is  a, 
fixed  fact;  and  its  promulgation  for  several  years  past,  and  its  introduction 
into  primary  schools  in  different  parts  of  the  country  as  a  means  of  teaching  to 
read  romanically,  in  the  common  print,  and  the  generally  increasing  demand  for 
teachers  qualified  to  teach  it,  have  wrought  a  complete  change  in  our  system 
of  primary  instruction,  and  stamp  phonetics  as  an  indispensable  adjunct  in 
teaching  to  read,  and  the  knowledge  of  it  a  prerequisite  to  a  qualified  teacher. 
When,  previous  to  the  introduction  of  phonetics,  did  we  hear  of  the  first  prin- 
ciples of  language,  the  elemental  sounds,  being  taught  in  schools?  Or  where 
were  the  teachers  who  were  well  acquainted  with  them?  Even  now,  in  many 
sections  of  the  West  and  South,  instructors  as  well  as  pupils  are  greatly 
deficient  in  this  respect  ;  but  the  light  of  the  phonetic  principle  is  opening 
their  eyes;  and  whether  it  reach  them  directly  through  the  phonotypio  alpha- 
bet or  by  means  of  Charts  of  the  Elementary  sounds,  newly  arranged  spelling 
books  and  readers,  or  some  other  channel,  it  matters  not,  they  will  soon  all  bo

theoretical  phoneticians,  and  will  not  object  to  a  philosophical  alphabet  for  the 
representation  of  pronunciation  in  Dictionaries,  Vocabularies,  etc.,  if  for  no 
other  purpose. 

In  regard  to  the  availability  of  the  Phonetic  alphabet  for  teaching  children 
tct  read  the  common  spelling  in  shorter  time  and  in  a  better  manner,  than  by 
the  ordinary  method,  the  reader  is  referred  to  the  Primer  and  Readers  advertized 
at  the  close  of  this  work,  or  for  the  philosophy  of  the  fact,  to  the  Introduction 
to  the  Phonetic  Dictionary,  by  the  same  publishers. 

The  phonetic  alphabet  will  be  found  on  page  12,  facing  the  first  page  of  the 
Vocabulary,  where,  by  examining  the  key  words  the  sounds  of  the  new  letters 
will  be  readily  learned,  the  old  letters  having  the  sounds  they  usually  repre- 
sent in  the  old  spelling,  which  are  also  designated. 


PRONUNCIATION    OF    FOREIGN    NAMES. 

In  accordance  with  the  established  custom  of  the  best  Geographers,  we  hare 
given  the  pronunciation  of  the  names  of  cities,  towns,  rivers,  etc.,  as  nearly  as 
English  mouths  can  speak  them,  as  they  are  pronounced  by  the  best  educated 
people  of  the  countries  in  which  they  are  situated.  To  do  this  it  has  frequently 
been  necessary  to  give  two  pronunciations,  as  the  same  printed  word  is  often 
spoken  differently  in  different  countries:  as,  Lima,  Lc-mq,  a  province  in  Peru, 
but  Li-ma,  towns  in  the  United  States;  Paris,  Pn-rs,  a  city  in  France,  but 
Par-is,  towns  in  this  country. 

In  carrying  out  this  plan  we  have  been  compelled  to  represent  a  few  sounds 
not  provided  for  in  the  English  Phonetic  Alphabet,  because  not  heard  in  the 
English  language.  The  most  frequent  is  that  of  the  German  and  Scotch  ch 
and  German  g  at  the  end  of  a  syllable,  which  represent  the  same  sound,  namely, 
a  strongly  aspirated  h,  which  we  indicate  by  using  the  italic  of  that  letter. 
Thus,  Metternich,  Met-er-ni/i;  Lochaber,  LoA-q-ber;  Hamburg,  Hqm-burA. 

Next  is  the  trilled  r,  which  in  French,  German,  and  indeed  most  of  the  Eu- 
ropean languages,  is  often  sounded  more  roughly,  even,  than  in  such  English 
words  as  cra&h,  terror,  etc.,  which  we  indicate  by  the  italic  r.  Thus,  Lierre, 
Le-4'';  Pernau,  Ver-rns. 

The  Welsh  I,  too,  we  represent  by  the  italic  of  that  letter,  which  may  be 
called  the  whisper  of  the  English  vocal  I,  an  approximation  to  which  the  reader 
may  make  by  sounding  hi.     Thus,  Llanelly,  Zan-e^-e. 

Lastly,  is  the  sign  of  the  French  orinasal  vowels,  or,  as  some  phoneticians 
regard  it,  the  whispered  g.  It  can  only  be  produced  by  sounding  some  vowel 
through  the  nose  and  mouth  at  the  same  time,  to  do  which  is  indicated  by 
affixing  the  letter  h;  thus,  Mont  Blanc,  Mon  Bloh. 

The  French  u  or  eu  being  very  difficult  to  produce  by  English  mouths,  we 
have  not  attempted  to  represent  it  accurately,  but  give  the  nearest  English 
approximation,  namely  e  as  the  vowel  in  sir,  or  earth,  which  is  at  least  as  near 
the  proper  sound  as  "m  in  tuh  or  fur"  which  Baldwin  gives.

GENERAL   PRINCIPLES  OF   PRONUNCIATION  OF 
THE    LEADINO   EUROPEAN  LANGUAGES. 

As  a  gaide  to  the  pronunciation  of  such  unimportant  names,  or  names  that 
tnay  hereafter  come   into  sudden  notoriety,    as  are  not  to  be  found   in  this 
book,  we  give  the  following  rules,  which  are  more  specific,  by  far,  than  can  bo 
found  in  any  ordinary  dictionary.     The  letters  in  parentheses,  in  the  Phonetic 
alphabet,  have  the  sounds  referred  to  immediately  preceding. 
A. — Always  has  the  sound  of  a  in  the  English  word  arniy  (q)  in  modern  Greek, 
Italian,  Norwegian,  Polish,  Portugese,  Spanish,  Swedish  and  usually  Welsh. 
In  German  it  generally  has  the  above  sound,  but  when  followed  by  h  it  fre- 
quently has  the  sound  of  a  in  all,  (e). 
In  Danish,  in  addition  to  the  above,  it  sometimes  has  the  sound  of  a  inai,(a.). 
In  French,  its  first  sound  is  like  a  in  arm,  (q);  its  second  like  the  vowel  ia 

at,  (a),  with  a  circumflex,  a,  it  is  sounded  very  nearly  like  a  in  all  (o). 
In  Dutch,  it  is  similar  to  the  French. 

In  Hungarian,  it  is  like  o  in  not,  (o);  with  an  accent,  a,  like  a  in  arm,  (q). 
E. — lu  Danish  is  sounded  like  i  in  ill,  (i),  at  the  end  of  an  accented  syllable; 
in  other  situations  like  e  in  ell,  (e),  or  like  ea  in  earth,  (e). 
The  Norwegian  is  similar  to  the  Danish. 

In  French,  marked  thus,  e,  it  is  sounded  like  a  in  ule,  (a);  thus,  e,  like  ea  in 
pear,  or  ai  in  air,  {^);  thus,  e,  like  e  in  very,  (e),  and  unmarked,  like  u 
in  t//),  (u.) 
In  Dutch  and  Flemish,  similar  to  the  French. 
In  German,  when  long,  it  is  like  a  in  ale  (a);  it  is,  however,  more  frequently 

short  like  e  in  met,  (e),  and  sometimes  like  ea  in  earth,  (e). 
Swedish,  the  same  as  in  German. 
In  Greek,  (modern,)  it  has  the  softnd  of  a  in  ale,  (a). 
In  Hungarian,  like  e  in  met,  (e):  with  an  Jiccent,  6,  more  like  t  in  sir,  (e). 
In  Italian  it  has  two  sounds,  like  a  in  ale,  (a),  and  like  e  in  ell. 
In  Polish,  without  an  accent,  like  e  in  ell,  (e);  \wth  an  accent,  6,  like  a  ia 

ale,  (a). 
In  Portugese  and  Spanish,  it  is  like  a  in  ah,  (a). 

In  Welsh,  like  e  in  met,  (e);  when  circumflexed,  e,  like  ai  in  air,  {%), 
I. — In  Portugese,  Spanish  and  Polish  is  sottnded  like  ee  iti eel,  (e). 

In  Danish,  Dutch,  Flemish,  French,  German,  Greek,  Hungarian,  Italian, 
Norwegian,  Swedish  and  Welsh,  it  has  two  sounds;  first,  as  ia  eel,  (e), 
second  as  in  ill,  (i.) 

0.— In   Danish,  Greek,  Hungarian,    Norwegian,   Portugese   and   Spanish,  is 

sounded  as  in  English. 
In  French,  Dutch,  Flemish,  German,  Italian  and  Welsh,  it  has  two  sounds; 

first,  as  /?  in  note,  (o),  and  second,  as  o  in  rob,  (o). 
In  Polish,  unaccented,  like  o  in  note,  (o),  with  an  accent,  like  w  in  good,  (a). 
In  Swedish,  at  the  end  of  a  syllable,  it  is  like  oo  in/o</i,  (a>);  otherwise  like 


viii  Introduction. 

U. — In  Danish,  Hungarian,  Italian,  Norwegian,  Polish,  Portugese  and  Span- 
ish, is  sounded  like  oo  in  fool,  (flo). 
The  French  sound  of  u  is  not  heard  in  English.  It  seems  to  be  an  attempt 
to  pronounce  ee  and  oo  at  the  same  time.  We  have  represented  it  in  this 
work  by  the  phonetic  e,  which  is,  perhaps,  the  neare:Jt  approximation  to 
the  true  sound  English  mouths  can  make,  without  much  vocal  teaching. 
Greek  and  Dutch  are  similar  to  the  French. 

In  German,  w  has  two  sounds,  long  likeoo  in/ofl^,(a>),  short  like  umfuU,  (u). 
In  Swedish  we  have  represented  u  by  the  phonetic  flo,  though  this  is  not  the 

exact  sound. 
In  Wel.-h,  the  sound  of  u  is  like  i  in  ill,  (i),circumflexed,i  as  ee  in  eel,  (e). 
F. — In  Danish  and  Swedish,  is  like  the  French  v,  (e). 
In  Dutch  and  Flemish,  like  long  z  in  English,  (j)  in  ice. 
In  French,  German,  Hungarian,  (when  a  vowel)  Portugese  and  Spanish,  like 

ee  in  eel,  (b). 
In  Greek,  when  a  consonant  and  before  a  vowel  or  a  liquid  sound,  is  like  the 

English  v;  otherwise  like  /, 
In  Polish,  like  *  in  ill. 

In  Welsh,  in  a  monosyllable  or  final  syllable,  as  in  ill,  (i);  in  the  penult  or 
antipcnult,  like  u  in  tip,  when  circumflexed,  like  ee  in  feet,  {z). 
Aa. — In  Danish,  sounds  like  o  in  ope,  (o). 
Ae.—ln  Danish  and  German,  like  a  in  ale,  (a). 
In  Dutch  and  Flemish,  like  a  in  arm,  (q). 
At. — In  French  and  Greek,  like  a  in  ale,  (a). 

In  German,  Spanish  and  Italian,  like  i  in  ice,  (j). 
^?/.— In  French,  like  o  in  ope,  (o). 

In  German,  Italian  and  Spanish,  like  ow  in  owl,  (-js). 
,/;*.— In  French,  sounds  like  a  in  fate,  (a). 
In  German,  like  *  in  ice,  (j). 
In  Spanish,  ei  and  ey  are  pronounced  a-e. 
In  Greek,  like  ee  in  see,  (e). 
Eu. — In  French,  is  the  same  as  u,  (6). 

In  German,  it  is  sounded  like  oi  in  oil,  (ff). 
Ja. — In  French,  is  pronounced  like  ia  in  medial,  (i-a). 

Je. — In  Danish,  Dutch,  Flemish,  French  and  German,  sounds  like  ee  in  see,  (e). 
Oe. — In  Danish,  German  and  Hungarian,  has  no  English  equivalent;  the  sound, 
however,  approaches  very  near  the  phonetic  e. 
In  Dutch  and  Flemish,  it  sounds  like  oo  in  food,  ((d). 
Oi.—ln  French,  is  nearly  like  wa  in  ivas,  (wq). 

In  Greek,  like  ee  in  eel,  (e). 
Oo.— In  Dutch,  is  like  o  in  o^ie,  (o).

X  Introduction. 

iSg. — In  Italian,  before  e  and  i,  is  like  «A,  (J). 
iSch.— In  German,  is  like  sh,  (J). 
6'z. — In  Hungarian,  is  like  t.

IF.— In  Danish,  Dutch  and   German,  is  sounded  very  nearly  like   English  «, 

except  that  the  upper  -teeth  should  not  touch  the  lower  lip. 
jr. — In  French,  sometimes  has  the  sound  of  s  or  z. 

In  Portugese,  like  sk,  (/). 

In  Spanish,  like  the  strongly  aspirated  h, 
Z.—ln  German,  is  sounded  as  ts. 

In  Polish,  likesA,  (3). 

In  Italian,  like  dz. 
Ze. — In  Hungarian,  is  like  zh,  (3). 
Zz. — In  Italian,  is  like  ts. 

Accent. — The  French  language  cannot  be  said  to  have  any  accent,  yet  there 
is  seemingly  a  stress  of  the  voice  on  the  last  syllable  in  a  word,  and  when  any 
accent  has  been  given  in  this  work,  it  is  on  the  last  syllable.  Great  care  should 
be  taken,  however,  in  not  making  so  great  a  difference  as  in  English,  but  to  pro- 
nounce each  syllable  with  such  a  force  as  will  let  each  glide  smoothly  into  that 
which  follows  it. 

No  rule  can  be  given  for  the  accent  of  the  German  words.  And  the  same 
may  be  said  of  the  Hungarian,  yet  with  this  difference,  while  the  German 
names  have  a  distinct  accent,  the  Hungarian  are  distinguished  by  quantity. 
In  Italian,  Spanish  and  Portugese,  words  ending  in  a  vowel  are  accented  on  the 
penult;  Spanish  words  ending  in  a  consonant  are  accented  on  the  last  syllable. 
Polish  words  or  names  of  more  than  one  syllable  are  always  accented  on  the 
penult.  Russian  words  are  always  accented  on  the  last  syllable.  Welsh  words 
are  always  accented  either  on  the  penult  or  the  last  syllable. 


Of  course,  in  the  preparation  of  a  work  of  this  kind  at  the  present  day,  there 
can  be  but  little  originality,  and  we  have  to  acknowledge  our  indebtedness  to 
most  of  the  Gazetteers  that  have  heretofore  been  published,  not  having  relied 
exclusively  upon  any  one. 

The  compiler  also  acknowledges  valuable  aid  received  from  Mr.  "William 
Henry  Smith,  especially  in  the  preparation  of  the  list  of  Personal  Names,  to 
obtain  the  pronunciation  of  which  was  often  attended  with  considerable  inves- 
tigation and  trouble. 

Conscious  that  there  may  be  some  blunders  and  inaccuracies  in  the  pages 
thus  prepared,  for  we  have  found  many  such  in  the  most  carefully  compiled 
books  we  have  consulted,  we  commend  our  labors  to  the  leniency  of  those  who 
may  seek  to  be  benefited  by  them,  with  the  request  that  they  will  assist  us  in 
making  them  more  perfect,  by  forwarding  to  the  publishers  a  note  of  such 
errors  as   they  may  discover. 


CONTRACTIONS  EMPLOYED  IN  THIS  WORK. 

As  a  general  thing  the  contractions  will  suggest  the  reading  intended.  The 
popuhitions  of  towns,  cities  and  inlands,  are  represented  by  figures  and  fractions 
that  give  the  number  of  thousands;  thus,  5]^  immediately  following  any  such 
name  is  to  be  read  5,500;  but  if  a  fraction  only,  then  the  population  is  only  that 
^rtion  of  a  thousand.  In  the  sentence,  ^'l,  cdn  and  t  Switz.,  ij^,"  and  similar 
ones,  the  figures  apply  only  to  the  place  last  mentioned.

the  country  is  of  every  variety — valley,

Alleghany  Slope;  2.  The  Mississippi 
Valley;  3.  Ihe  Pacific,  or  Rocky

steadily  furnishes  the  states  and  terri-

The  rapidity  with  which  population 
increases  in  the  United  States  is  re- 
markable: at  the  rate  of  increase  for 
the  preceding  ten  years,  up  to  1850, 
the  present  population  would  be  ( 1856 ) 
28,753,062.  The  nambor  of  persons  to 
the  square  mile  in  the  non-slavehold- 
ing  states  were  21.91:  slaveholding, 
31.3.5. 

The  educational  system  U  unequal- 


led by  that  of  any  country  (excepting 
Prussia)  in  the  world.  The  nuraberof 
public  and  private  schools,  colleges  and 
academies,  is  87,162;  of  students  in 
attendance  4,089,597,  and  the  propor- 
tion at  school  is  1  to  4.9,  not  including 
slaves,  and  greater  than  that  of  any 
other  country.  The  ratio  of  those  over 
twenty  years  of  age  unable  to  read  or 
write  is  1  in  40  in  the  non-slaveholding 
states,  and  1  in  12  in  the  slaveholding 
states.  In  the  New  England  states, 
1  in  400.  The  number  of  papers  pub- 
lished, 2,526;  while  other  publications, 
such  as  books,  pamphlets,  etc.,  exceed, 
probably,  all  other  countries  together. 

American  ships  are  found  on  every 
sea,  and  in  its  ports  the  productions  of 
every  clime  are  received.  There  en- 
tered from  foreign  ports,  in  1854,  19,- 
103  vessels,  with  a  tonnage  of  5,884,- 
339  tons;  cleared,  in  the  same  period, 
19,073,  with  a  tonnage  of  6,019,194-;

PERSONAL    NAMES. 


INTRODUCTION. 


SunxAMES,  like  Steam  Engines,  Railroads,  and  Telegraphs,  seem  to  be  of 
modern  origin,  the  expanse  of  mind  and  a  rapidly  advancing  eirilization  having 
created  the  necessity  for  a  definite  distinction  between  the  actors  in  the  drama 
of  life.  However  this  may  be,  the  invention  seems,  to  the  mass  of  mankind,  to 
be  more  perplexing  than  those  mentioned  in  this  connection  ;  but  this  difficulty 
is  not,  let  it  be  borne  in  mind,  in  the  names  vocally  expressed,  but  in  their 
symholical  representation.  Following  out  the  tendencies  of  a  wretchedly  im- 
perfect orthography,  the  good  fathers  dressed  themselves  [t.  €.,  their  names,]  in 
ill-arranged  costumes,  which,  after  the  established  manner  of  things  temporal, 
fell  to  their  children,  who  have  since  continued  to  hand  them  down  from  gen- 
eration to  generation,  with  but  slight  modifications. 

If  it  be  true  that,  ^^ Sine  nomine  homo  non  ed,"*  then  should  the  clothing  of 
the  name  be  appropriate — an  indication  to  the  eye  of  what  the  thing  is  itself. 
But  alas  I  such  is  not  the  case,  and  in  view  of  the  fact,  which  we  cannot  look 
to  be  changed  at  present,  in  any  way  whatever,  we  have  endeavored,  in  the 
pages  that  follow,  to  overcome  this  difficulty  to  some  extent — to  place  it  in  the 
power  of  the  reader  to  call  people  by  their  right  names.  We  do  notclaim  for  it 
coTTGCtnGss  \n  evet'y  particular,  ioT  the  many  difficulties  in  the  way  rendered 
this  impossible  at  first,  but  we  feel  confident  that  the  reader  of  general  history, 
and  the  student  in  all  the  departments  of  science  and  literature,  will  find  this 
list  of  Personal  Xames  an  invaluable  companion.  And,  furthermore,  to  those 
engaged  in  commercial,  mechanical,  or  agricultural  pursuits,  who  generally  give 
their  spare  time  each  day  to  the  reading  of  their  "paper,"  this  will  be  found  of 
great  use  in  rendering  familiar  what  they  read.  The  constant  intercommuni- 
cation between  the  civilized  nations  of  the  earth,  the  numerous  travelers  fol- 
lowing the  various  directions  of  the  compass,  at  the  present  time,  render  such 
a  work  highly  important.  There  are  biographical  dictionaries,  it  is  true,  but 
while  the  names  given  are  barely  readable  to  the  sarant,  they  are  unapproach- 
able barriers  in  the  way  of  the  general  reader. — Surely  this  class,  as  well  as 

*  Without  a  name  man  is  nothing. 

(128) 


Personal   Names.  129 

all  others  who  are  in  the  habit  of  reading,  will  feel  grateful  for  the  appearance 
of  this  little  work,  and  all  other  attempts  to  make  intelligible  words  clothed 
in  a  strange  orthography.  If  every  Dutchman  one  meets  has  not  a  namo  so 
long  as  Hans  Jnkvervankoclsdorspanckinkadrachdern, — or  every  father  of  the 
Church  so  modest  a  title  as  that  of  "Si.  CulIen-ap-Gyvnawg-ajy-Clyndarvg-cp- 
Oiwrda-ap-Caradoc-Freichfras-ap-Llynn-Merim-ap-Eaion-Yrth-a'p-Cu.nedda- 
Wledig"*  still  there  are  many  less  imposing,  of  Anglo-Saxon  as  well  as  of  for- 
eign races,  quite  unpronouncable  without  assistance, — to  dress  these  in  pho- 
notypy  renders  them  intelligible. 

This,  as  we  believe,  is  the  first  attempt  to  give  the  pronunciation  of  modem 
names,  and  in  the  absence  of  such  a  work  of  reference  the  task  has  been  labo- 
rious. But  no  pains  have  been  spared  in  procuring  the  correct  pronuncia- 
tion of  every  name  as  far  as  possible,  not  only  as  instanced,  but  by  reference  to 
geographical  names,  poetry,  and  to  works  in  every  department  of  science  and> 
Belles-lettres.  For  instance,  the  name  of  a  distinguished  Senator  from  Texas, 
(Houston,)  is  pronounced  by  some  public  speakers,  His-ton,  by  others,  H(6s-ton; 
now  the  object  to  be  obtained  was  to  find  out  how  the  gentleman  pronounced 
it  himself,  which  was  done,  and  was  found  to  be  as  last  given.  It  would  have 
been  gratifying  to  the  publishers  to  have  been  able  to  give  a  more  ex« 
tended  notice  of  the  works  of  the  great  minds  that  have  passed  away,  together 
with  those  actively  engaged  at  the  present  time, — to  have  chatted  column  after 
column  away  about  the  Shakespeares,  Newtons  and  Godwins,  theGcEXHES, 
Kaxts  and  Schillers,  the  La  Places  and  Franklins  of  the  past,  the  Hum- 
BOLDTS,  Araoos  and  Agassiz,  of  the  present,  but  this  would  have  alone  re- 
quired a  massive  volume,  and  would  have  defeated  the  object  of  the  publishers, 
which  was  to  make  a  convenient  book  of  reference  for  every  class  of  persons. 

In  conclusion,  we  invoke  an  honest  criticism  of  our  labors,  hoping  that  such 
errors  as  are  noted  will  be  forwarded  in  timo  to  make  the  requisite  corrections 
in  the  second  edition.  W.  H.  S. 


*  The  dedication  of  the  Church  of  Llangollen  in  Wales.  [Vide  Recreative 
Review,  vol.  ii.  p,  189,  Eng.]  It  appears  from  the  following  laughable  des- 
cription of  cheese,  designed  to  ridicule  this  system  of  nomenclature,  that  the 
Burnominal  adjunct,  ap,  [meaning  of,  or  from,  by  descent,]  was  used  in  Wales 
until  recently: —

EXPLANATION    OF    ABBREVIATIONS. 

The  usual  Geographical  abbreviations  are  employed,  as  explained  in  the  In- 
troduction to  the  Geographical  Names ;  also,  the  ordinary  abbreviations  of 
Christian  names.  In  order  to  economize  space,  an  abridged  style  of  expression 
hu3  been  adopted,  which  when  once  understood  is  sufficiently  expressive  for  a 
book  of  reference.  Thus:  "Aaron,  eld  hr  Moses," — elder  brother  of  3Ioses ; 
"b,  A.  }i\."—hYrn  year  of  the  world  ;  "B.  C," — hefore  Christ.  The  figures  at 
the  close  of  each  paragraph,  thus  :  "  1512 — 1571,"  are  to  be  read, ''  born  1512 — 
died  1571 ;"  or  if  '*  k."  precede  the  last  figures,  read  "killed  1571 ;"  "g."  "guil- 
lotined," &c.  See  "AinrauUer,"  "1807 — ,"  means,  born  1807,  but  not  dead,  or 
if  so  it  is  not  known  ;  "Allen,"  " — 1789,"  means,  the  birth  is  not  known,  but 
died  in  1789.  [Those  who  own  the  book,  when  they  hear  of  the  death  of  anj 
individual  mentioned  in  it,  should  enter  the  time  of  hia  decease  opposite  th« 
name.]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 


Phonography  has  been  defined  as  a  philosophical  method 
of  writing  the  English  language,  with  an  alphabet  composed 
of  the  simplest  geometrical  signs,  which  accurately  represent 
the  sounds  of  spoken  words.  It  may  be  written  six  times  as 
fast  as  the  ordinary  longhand,  and  is  equally  legible.  Aside 
from  the  scientific  propriety  of  the  system,  as  made  manifest 
in  the  Introduction  which  follows,  the  following  practical 
advantages  are  worthy  of  consideration: 

1.  To  professors  of  scientific  and  literary  institutions — to 
gentlemen  of  the  bench  or  the  bar — to  legislators  in  the  halls 
of  representation — to  ministers  of  religion — to  lecturers  on 
the  various  arts  and  sciences — it  presents  the  most  invalu- 
able aid,  in  enabling  them  to  arrange,  condense,  and  fix  their 
thoughts,  facts,  arguments  and  proofs,  in  the  briefest  period 
of  time  and  the  shortest  possible  space,  presenting,  in  the 
condensed  schedule  of  a  small  page,  a  full  and  complete  syn- 
opsis of  their  most  elaborate  speeches,  orations,  or  discourses. 

2.  By  its  aid,  the  advocates  in  the  courts  of  justice  or  the 
halls  of  trial,  will  be  enabled  to  write,  with  ease  and  accu- 
racy, either  the  full  depositions  of  important  witnesses,  or  the 
facts,  proofs,  evidences,  and  arguments  of  legal  opponents, 
and  thus  be  in  a  position,  not  only  to  meet  them  with  readi- 
ness and  strength,  but  eventually  to  thoroughly  overthrow 
and  refute  them. 

3.  The  student  in  the  halls  of  science  can  transcribe  with 
faithfulness,  and  preserve  in  the  smallest  compass,  the  valu- 
able lessons  of  professors,  and  thus  preserve,  for  the  medita- 
tion of  his  leisure  hours,  a  connected  wJiole,  instead  of  broken, 
detached,  and  uncertain  fragments,  that  often  serve  to  con- 
fuse, bewilder,  or  perplex. 

4.  Merchants,  and  clerks  of  mercantile  houses,  to  whom 
tirm  and  space  are  really  a  desideratum,  will  find  Phonography 
a  D.ost  invaluable  aviJ(iliary;  as  the  ease  with  which  it  can 

(Yl) 


ADVANTAGES   OP    PHONOGRAPHY. 


be  learncJ  and  acquired,  and  the  facility  and  readiness  with 
which  it  can  be  written  and  read,  will  enable  them  to  tran- 
scribe their  accounts,  to  note  their  memoranda,  to  post  up 
their  bills,  and  even  to  conduct  their  correspondence,  in  less 
than  one-fifth  of  the  ordinary  time,  and  in  a  considerable  re- 
duction of  the  ordinary  space;  and  as  "  time  is  Trvoney^  it 
presents  to  them  indeed  a  most  invaluable  gain. 

5.  To  the  author,  editor,  or  general  writer — to  the  orator, 
legislator,  or  minister — how  invaluable  must  it  be,  when  they 
reflect  how  many  of  their  most  brilliant  thoughts  and  most 
glowing  conceptions,  how  many  of  the  most  sparkling  gems 
of  their  imaginations  and  the  most  radiant  pearls  of  their 
thoughts,  that  in  moments  of  genius  and  enthusiasm  flash 
like  electric  sparks  from  the  mind,  are  forever  lost  for  the 
want  of  some  Dagiierrean  process,  like  the  one  we  present, 
to  catch  and  transfix  them  on  the  wing,  recording  them  on 
the  glowing  page  in  all  the  freshness,  vigor,  and  brilliancy  of 
their  first  conception,  as  rapidly  as  they  are  presented  to  the 
mind!  and  for  the  lack  of  which,  alas!  like  tiie  dazzling  flash 
of  the  evanescent  meteor,  they  fade  and  expire  as  rapidly  as 
they  are  kindled,  and  leave  but  the  indistinct  memory  of  their 
trace  behind. 

6.  A  practical  acquaintance  with  this  art  is  highly  favor- 
able to  the  improvement  of  the  mind,  invigorating  all  its  fac- 
ulties, and  drawing  forth  all  its  resources.  The  close  atten- 
tion requisite  in  following  the  voice  of  the  speaker  (in  report- 
ing) induces  habits  of  patience,  perseverance  and  watchful- 
ness, which  will  gradually  extend,  till  they  form  habits  that 
will  be  found  useful  through  life.  The  close  attention  to  the 
words  and  thoughts  of  the  speaker  which  is  necessary  in 
writing  them  down,  will  naturally  have  a  tendency  to  endue 
the  mind  with  quickness  of  apprehension  and  distinctness  of 
perception,  whereby  the  judgment  will  be  strengthened  and 
the  taste  refined. 

7.  The  memory  is  also  improved  by  the  practice  of  Pho- 
nography.    The  necessity  for   the   writer  to   retain  in    his

mind  the  last  sentence  of  the  speaker,  while  he  is  attending 
at  the  same  time  to  what  follows,  and  also  to  penning  down 
his  words,  must  be  highly  beneficial  to  that  faculty,  which  is 
more  than  any  other  improved  by  exercise.  It  draws  out 
and  improves  all  the  faculties  of  the  mind. 

"Phonography,"  says  Messrs.  Fowlers  &,  Wells,  "we  re- 
gard as  one  of  the  most  important  inventions  of  the  age,  and 
one  which  should  be  open  to  every  person  desirous  of  being 
considered  educated.  As  a  system  of  reporting,  general  cor- 
respondence, and  memoranda,  it  is  unparalleled  in  usefulness. 
In  chirography,  it  is  what  the  telegraphs  are  in  agencies  for 
transmitting  thought.  We  employ  three  reporters,  one  in 
our  office  and  two  who  travel  with  lecturers  from  our  house. 
In  ten  minutes  we  can  dictate  an  article  for  publication  which 
we  could  not  compose  and  write  in  two  hours;  besides  it  con- 
tains more  spirit  and  freshness  than  if  labored  through  at  the 
slow  pace  of  ordinary  composition.  Every  scholar  should  by 
all  means  learn  it." 

Professor  Hart,  Principal  of  the  Philadelphia  High  School, 
says:  "  Phonography  has  been  introduced  into  this  institu- 
tion two  years  and  a  half,  and  has  been  learned  by  about 
four  hundred.  Two  hundred  are  studying  it  now.  It  is  one 
of  the  regular  branches  of  the  course,  being  attended  to  three 
times  a  week  during  the  whole  of  the  first  year.  Had  I  not 
supposed  it  to  be  of  much  practical  value,  I  should  not  have 
urged  its  introduction,  a  measure  which  I  have  seen  no  occa- 
sion to  regret.  Such  of  our  students  as  have  made  Phono- 
graphic Reporting  a  profession,  have  got  along  in  life  faster, 
by  all  odds,  than  those  in  any  other  kind  of  business,  and 
that  without  the  possession  of  any  special  brilliancy  of  tal- 
ents. Some  of  them,  not  yet  turned  twenty,  are  now  mak- 
ing more  money  by  Phonographic  Reporting  than  the  Princi- 
pal of  the  High  School,  after  having  given  himself  for  more 
than  twenty  years  to  his  profession." 

Said  the  Hon.  Thomas  Benton:  "  Had  this  art  been  known 
forty  years  ago,  it  would  have  saved  me  twenty  years  of 
hard  labor." 

♦*  It  is  my  humble  opinion  that  it  will  eventually  supersede 
the  present  system  of  writing,  as  the  steam  carriage  train 
supersedes  the  old  eight  inch  wheeled  wagon." — Jiev.  Dunbar. 

Such  are  the  tendencies  of  the  art  this  book  is  designed  to 
unfold.

No.  160  Vine  Street,  Cinciiinati,  0. 

Tev  years'  experience  in  the  Phonographic  art,  as  Teacher  and  Re- 
porter, and  for  nearly  the  same  period  occupied,  more  or  less,  in  preparing 
books  for  the  press,  give  the  author  of  the  Amkrican  Manual  of 
Phoxoqrapht  the  fullest  assurance  in  presenting  this  work  to  the 
public.  Since  its  first  publication,  it  has  undergone  careful  revision,  and 
now  appears  in  an  entirely  new  dress,  in  every  way  adupted  to  the  wants 
of  the  teacher  and  private  learner.  It  differs  from  any  other  work  pub- 
lished, in  the  following  particulars: 

1.  The  explanatory  matter  is  in  large,  clear  type. 

2.  The  Phonographic  Exercises  are  engraved  in  a  bold,  distinct  style, 
that  they  may  be  as  easily  read  by  candlelight  as  daylight. 

3.  The  Reading  and  Writing  Exercises  are  introduced  just  where  the 
text  requires  them,  whether  it  be  on  the  same  page  or  the  opposite  one, 

4.  The  Exercises  to  be  written  are  printed  in  phonetic  spelling,  which, 
being  fully  explained,  enables  the  learner  to  analyze  accurately,  and 
vocalize  his  writing  correctly — two  essentials  to  rapid  progress  and  the 
attainment  of  a  good  style. 

5.  Each  lesson  is  closed  with  a  review  in  the  form  of  questions,  which, 
as  in  all  other  text  books  on  science,  proves  of  great  service  to  both  learner 
and  teacher. 

6.  It  contains  more  extensive  lists  of  Contracted  "Words,  and  more 
Phraseography  than  any  other  work. 

7.  Beside  the  above  characteristic  features,  the  American  Manual 
possesses  all  the  late  improvements  in  Phonography,  including  the  adapta- 
tion of  the  art  to  the  writing  of  foreign  languages. 

8.  The  American  Manual  is  one-fourth  larger  than  works  of  the  kind 
usually  are,  more  space  being  devoted  to  an  exposition  of  the  philosophy 
of  the  system,  f«r  the  purpose  of  satisfying  the  student  in  regard  to  the 
necessity  of  the  various  contractions,  etc.  It  is  printed  on  the  very  best 
of  pnpor,  and  is  substantially  and  elegantly  bound.

THE  SPELLING  REFORM— Instituted  to  make  universal  education  possi- 
ble, by  rendering  the  arts  of  Reading  and  Writing  pleasant  and  easy  to  acquire. 
Phonotypy  is  a  rational  system  of  spelling  words  aa  they  are  pronounced, 
by  employing  an  enlarged  alphabet  containing  a  separate  letter  for  each  sound, 
by  which  means  the  drudgery  of  learning  to  spell  is  entirely  dispensed  with, 
and  learning  to  read  is  accomplished  in  one-fourth  of  the  time  required  in  tho 
old  way.  Phon'OGRAphy  is  a  truly  philosophical  method  of  writing  the 
English  Language,  by  an  alphabet  composed  of  the  simplest  geometrical  signs, 
which  accurately  represent  the  sounds  of  spoken  words.  It  may  be  written 
six  times  as  fast  as  ordinary  longhand,  and  is  equally  legible,  and  such  is  the 
simplicity  of  the  art  that  its  priiiciples  may  be  easily  mastered  even  without  tho 
aid  of  a  teacher.
